Potential TMI.
Okay, I have no idea what caused the gas-like (but I don't think it was gas) discomfort in my mid-to-lower abdomen last night, but it also caused me to run a fever (100.7) in the middle of the night -- at first I thought it was a hot flash, but it went on, and on...
I finally got up about 5 am and took a couple of ibuprofen, fell asleep about 6, then slept till 10 [wry g], and the fever is gone this morning, but I'm still feeling kind of blah. I don't know if it's because my sleep cycle was thrown off or what. Still kind of uncomfortable in the abdomen, too, but not nearly as bad as last night, and I've got a weird metallic taste in my mouth.
No, it's not bad enough to go to the emergency room for. If it's still bothering me by Monday I may go to the after hours care at my HMO. We'll see.
Oh, and this weekend was Elli's turn to get dehydrated and drag her butt across the floor. She, unlike her sister, will eat canned food, so I bought her some and she scarfed it right down. I also bought a couple more water dishes to scatter around the house since apparently Elena has claimed the one upstairs for her exclusive use. Elli's been seen drinking at at least one of them in the last hour, so I think things are going to be okay, but still. Sheesh.
